"A moving first novel...Lily is an authentic and winning character and her story is compellingly told. The bees presage her journey toward self-acceptance, faith and freedom that is at the heart of this novel." — USA Today "Inspiring. Sue Monk Kidd is a direct literary descendant of Carson McCullers." — The Baltimore Sun "Fully imagined...the core of this story is Lily's search for a mother, and she finds one in a place she never expected." — The New York Times Book Review "This is the story of a young girl's journey toward healing, and of the intrinsic sacredness of living in the world. Simply wonderful." — Anne Rivers Siddons ""The stunning metaphors and realistic characters are so poignant they will bring tears to your eyes." — Library Journal "Kidd has written a triumphant coming-of-age novel that speaks to the universal need for love" — New Orleans Times-Picayune "The chapters...dance on the edges of 'Magical Realism,' that blend of the fabulous and the ordinary that can invest a tale with a sense of wonderment, as is the case here." — Richmond Times-Dispatch "I am amazed that this moving, original, and accomplished book is a first novel. It is wonderfully written, powerful, poignant, and humorous, and deliciously eccentric. Do read it." — Joanna Trollope "A wonderful novel about mothers and daughters and the transcendent power of love." — Connie May Fowler "A truly original Southern voice." — Anita Shreve "It's as if Kidd loaded up a take-home plate with treats, and you said 'Oh, I couldn't,' and then scarfed it down in the car on the way home." — Entertainment Weekly "The tale of one motherless daughter's discovery of what family really means—and of the strange and wondrous places we love." — The Washington Post Hörbücher > Fremdsprachige Hörbücher > Englische Hörbücher 14.7 cm x 13.6 cm x 4.1 cm mm , Penguin Audio PRH US, CD, Penguin Audio PRH US<
